As soon as the old man Merc got within a 50 meter range of the group they were aiming for, he got noticed by the group's leader.
"It's an ambush! Get into formation!" The group's leader shouted, notifying his men.
The group of 5 immediately got into formation without a shred of doubt of their leader's command.
Their group was composed of two largely built shield holders, who stood at the front most part of the group. They also had two people standing at the back. The weird thing about them was that they held a long bow, but they had no arrows.
As for their leader, he was standing in the middle, between the front liners and the back liners, holding two long swords, one in each hand as he looked at where old man Merc was coming from.
Soon, the old man was standing in front of the group with two long spears imbued with energy, one in each hand.
He looked at the group's leader standing behind his men with contempt.
